Simultaneous same file playback through multiple devices
Aug 17 2013 | 5:24 pm
Let's say we have a buffer being read through in one instance on one computer.
Is there anyway to have another computer with the same sound file essentially "pick up" where the other buffer is and have them play simultaneously?
Trying to think this through,
